Don't Try So Hard

Monday, July 28, 2014

Happy Monday beautiful people! I am really excited for today's post. I am joining an amazing link-up hosted by Kate over at The "Florkens", Nicole over at Treasure Tromp, and Jackie over at Jade & Oak. These ladies are encouraging everyone to feel beautiful in their own skin by not trying so hard. The point of this link-up is to take off all the makeup, let your hair down, and just feel beautiful with what God gave you. This is such an important thing we all seem to forget. We all get so wrapped up in trying to have the perfect everything these days, we forget to love ourselves and our lives as they are.

Today I am posting a photo of myself with no makeup on and my hair is just so. I look at this photo and instantly see all of my flaws (Of course, this is what society has taught us right?). I also notice how much I love my eyes. They are blue, but will mimic other colors and sometimes look grey. When I play them up with makeup they are a bright blue that shine. They are my favorite feature and they make me feel beautiful.

I hope you will all share a picture and show your beauty! It is so empowering to show off your natural beauty to the world. Make it a great Monday everyone!

Hey! I'm Trish!

Welcome to The Trish List; fondly referred to as the zen between the chaos. Here you will find me writing about navigating life with a tiny human while trying to stay connected to the me I was before motherhood. Things can get a little chaotic, so sit back and enjoy the ride. I promise to offer the zen side of life too! Being a certified yoga teacher, I do love to focus on self care mixed into daily lifestyle.
